Automatic deletion or inactive of profile after debug execution

Since the option to filter in the cics debug profile is very limited, debugging is performed due to the profile of the request made by others unintentionally in an environment performed by multiple people.

In addition, if the user forgets to inactive profile, requests from other users may be debugged/holded and the user may be embarrassed.

The method would be nice if there is a toggle option that can be deactivated immediately after I use it or a function that automatically deactivates after a certain period of time.
